A neighborhood in the East Bronx, Morris Park is a residential neighborhood full of young professionals and students. Surrounded by Pelham Gardens, Pelham Bay, Little Yemen, and Allerton, this area is surprisingly quiet given its young population.
Though it's home to two great schools, Morris Park is named after John Albert Morris, who built a very popular race track in 1889. The track existed until 1910 when horse racing was outlawed in New York.
The neighborhood was a quiet residence full of families until 1953 when the Albert Einstein College of Medicine opened next to the Jack and Pearl Resnick branch of Yeshiva University. These two institutions began to draw younger crowds to the area.
